Regulatory effects of Lactobacillus plantarum HY7714 on skin health by improving intestinal condition

Abstract

Despite increasing research on the gut-skin axis, there is a lack of comprehensive studies on the improvement of skin health through the regulation of the intestinal condition in humans. In this study, we investigated the benefits of Lactobacillus plantarum HY7714 (HY7714) consumption on skin health through its modulatory effects on the intestine and ensuing immune responses. HY7714 consumption led to differences in bacterial abundances from phylum to genus level, including increases in Actinobacteria followed by Bifidobacterium and a decrease in Proteobacteria. Additionally, HY7714 significantly ameliorated inflammation by reducing matrix metallopeptidases (MMP-2 and MMP-9), zonulin, and calprotectin in plasma, all of which are related to skin and intestinal permeability. Furthermore, RNA-seq analysis revealed its efficacy at restoring the integrity of the gut barrier by regulating gene expression associated with the extracellular matrix and immunity. This was evident by the upregulation of IGFBP5, SERPINE1, EFEMP1, COL6A3, and SEMA3B and downregulation of MT2A, MT1E, MT1X, MT1G, and MT1F between TNFα and TNFα plus HY7714 treated Caco-2 cells. These results propose the potential mechanistic role of HY7714 on skin health by the regulation of the gut condition. OPEN ACCESS Citation: Nam B, Kim SA, Park SD, Kim HJ, Kim JS, Bae CH, et al.

Potential anti-ageing effects of probiotic-derived conditioned media on human skin cells

“…In terms of photoaging, the skin of mice administered with B. breve-containing milk showed improvement in elasticity and appearance after UV irradiation (16). Similar results were shown in UV-irradiated skin of mice administered L. plantarum HY7714 (17). These results indicate the beneficial and anti-ageing effects of probiotics on the skin; however, there are limitations in investigating the effects of probiotics using only oral-administration experimental models: first, safety concerns have been raised in several studies, especially in sick and immunocompromised patients (18)(19)(20).…”

A Combined Analysis of Gut and Skin Microbiota in Infants with Food Allergy and Atopic Dermatitis: A Pilot Study

“…It seems likely that the gut microbiome influences the health status of skin [ 66 , 67 , 68 , 69 ], particularly in the pathogenesis of AD [ 17 ]. Certain organisms, such as Escherichia / Shigella or Veillonella , were found to be more abundant in the feces of AD patients, while others ( Streptococcus , Haemophilus ) were more prominent in those of healthy subjects [ 69 ].…”

Commensal Lactobacilli Enhance Sperm Qualitative Parameters in Dogs

“…Probiotics are used as dietary supplements to improve and regulate the gastrointestinal microbiome by promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria, inhibiting the growth of pathogens and potentially harmful microorganisms ( 37 ). Gut commensal lactobacilli such as L. acidophilus, L. reuteri, L. rhamnosus, L. plantarum, and L. salivariu s have been used as probiotic supplements in recent years and have a positive effect on the general health and gut microbiome health of the host ( 38 – 42 ). Among the various Lactobacillus spp., we selected three of them ( L. acidophilus, L. reuteri , and L. salivarius ) as commensal probiotics based on our previous study ( 21 ), and a list of approved feed additives in South Korea.…”
